As per the latest buzz, the Agneepath actor has indeed appealed for a two week furlough…

Sanjay Dutt is currently serving 42 month sentence in Yerwada jail, Pune, after he got convicted in connection with 1993 Mumbai Blast case last year. We hear the talented actor has applied for 14 day furlough but the reason is unknown. This isn’t the first time that Sanju baba has given parole application. Last year, the Munnbhai MBBS hero was out for 30 days in October because of his own health issues. Then in December he was again out on parole as his wife Manyata Dutt was unwell. In fact, his furlough got extended due to his wifey’s bad condition. And now the PK actor has apparently applied for 14 day furlough.

While talking to a leading tabloid, a source said, “He has submitted his application and is awaiting its acceptance.” When Dutt was out on parole twice last year, a lot was said and written about the same due to which the government came under lot of pressure and eventually ordered an inquiry. Will Sanjay’s plea get accepted this time around? Only time will tell.

Dutt may be out on parole but that doesn’t stop him from getting into more trouble

Sanjay Dutt is certainly controversy’s favourite child, no? Only few days ago, the actor walked out of the Yerwada jail on a month long parole. Not so long time ago, Sanjay was out on furlough for a few days in October, which was extended due to his ill health. This time around, the actor has been granted parole due to his wife’s illness. The fact that Sanjay was granted parole twice in such a short gap of time gave rise to many controversies. And now we hear that Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) will be protesting outside Dutt’s Bandra residence today.

Well, there have been reports that higher-ups in the government have been showing favouritism towards Sanjay Dutt and are being too lenient in his case. Though the actor has rubbished all such rumours, ABVP certainly does not believe so which is why they will be protesting against his parole. BollywoodLifers, do you think ABVP’s protest is justified or shall they just leave Dutt and his family alone during the 30 days of his parole?

The actor was granted parole earlier this month and now he has finally left the jail

Not so long time ago, Sanjay Dutt was granted 30 days parole in the 1993 blasts case, due to his wife, Manyata Dutt’s ill health. The actor left the Pune Yerwada jail today morning at ten am. When Dutt was granted the parole, several controversies arose as despite being ill, Manyata was spotted at events. However, doctors have confirmed the detection of tumour in Manyata’s liver and also claim that she has a heart ailment. Earlier, the actor was had availed 15 days of furlough on medical grounds in October and had extended it further due to which there was quite a buzz about him seeking parole again.

Sanjay Dutt’s parole is conditional and we hear that he has to report to Khar police station for two days in a week. Dutt was sentenced to six years in jail, which was reduced to five years by the Supreme Court. The SC dismissed his plea seeking review of its judgement and his 5-year-long sentence.

Well, now that the actor is out on parole, we hope the best for him and his family…

The convicted actor who was granted 14 days parole reached home today after four months away

Call it coincidence or a happy idea, but the fact is that the Yerawada jail authorities have granted prisoner Sanjay Dutt two weeks parole on medical grounds, starting today, just a day before Gandhi Jayanti. We wonder if he’ll be allowed to celebrate the freedom fighter’s birthday in public tomorrow. And will he himself want to do so?

Addressing the media after reaching Mumbai, the doting father and husband said, “I want to spend some time with my family. I want to thank my fans for all their support. I am a law abiding citizen. I respect the law and courts of India. I will complete my parole and will report back to jail.” Sanju baba was obviously thrilled to be home, even if it is only for a short time.

Sanju baba couldn’t stop smiling, even though he looked emaciated and frail. Currently serving a 42-month sentence for his involvement in the March 1993 Mumbai serial blasts case, Dutt submitted an application requesting parole in August. Hopefully baba gets some quality time to spend with his dearest wife Maanyata Dutt and his kids Iqra and Shahraan before he goes back to jail again. And he goes there healthier!

Some reports suggest it’s because the Munnabhai actor posed with the jail authorities that irked the state administration while some say security reasons

Last week, Sanjay Dutt’s bearded pic rehearsing for a play in Pune’s Yerwada jail made headlines. The Munna Bhai actor, who is currently serving his term in Pune-based jail in connection with the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts, was clicked rehearsing for a play that he was supposed to enact along with his inmates yesterday (September 26) and planned to raise welfare funds for the convicts.

Dutt was supposed to perform on Shahrukh Khan’s song Lungi dancefrom Chennai Express. There were reports that the Yerwada Central Jail authorities had roped in filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani to supervise the play titled Teemiratun…Tejakade (from darkness to light). The play was supposed to feature 20 prisoners apart from Sanju baba and was schedule to take place at Bal Gandharva Auditorium in Pune, and Home Minister R R Patil was to attend. If everything was organised, then why was the play meant for a noble cause called off?

According to a tabloid report, the photograph where the 54-year-old actor is seen posing (happily) with the prison authorities assuming them to extend special treatment to the star has annoyed the state administration. Government sources suggest that Additional Chief Secretary (Home) Amitabh Rajan and other top officials felt that a movement was being used to glorify a jailed actor.

“They gave so much attention to Dutt and made him the main attraction of a prison activity. Tomorrow, they may try providing him better food and other luxuries inside prison. We cannot encourage such special treatment to any inmate,” a senior officer on the condition of anonymity informed the tabloid. On the other hand, insiders say jail authorities decided to abandon the show last minute citing security reasons. (quite bizarre, no?) The Policegiri star’s family including wife Maanayata Dutt, sisters Namrata and Priya with their husbands, Rohit Shetty and Bunty Walia were already on their way to Pune when they received an SMS informing them about the cancellation.

The actor who’s currently serving his three-and-a-half-year prison sentence makes it a point to be in regular touch with wife Manyata

Sanjay Dutt and wife Manyata Dutt are making sure that they keep each other updated about their lives. Since Sanjay started serving his three-and-half year sentence in Yerawada jail in Pune, we hear he is doing what it takes to be in touch with his family. So it seems the Policegiri actor writes a letter almost every other day to wifey Manyata so that he is abreast with the happenings in his household and also matters related to his production house.

Sanjay Dutt Productions has put in money in a couple of films and Manyata has taken the onus of spearheading it on her husband’s behalf. The actor has a slew of films up for release; we hope he gets solace in its success.

The Munna Bhai star will begin serving his sentence from today

Sanjay Dutt surrendered today before the TADA court to start serving his three-and-half year sentence in the 1993 Mumbai serial bomb blasts case. The star reached the court in a white kurta and jeans with a big tilak on his forehead.

He left his Bandra residence in the afternoon along with wife Manyata Dutt. He first stopped at the Siddhivinayak temple to seek blessings after which he reached court. There was a fair bit of jostling as media persons, fans and police almost mobbed the actor and Sanjay reached the insides of the courtroom after a lengthy 20-minute struggle. Inside the courtroom, Dutt was identified and the paperwork on his case started.

After the paperwork formalities are completed, Sanjay will be mostly taken to Arthur Road jail and then to Yerawada jail in Pune where he will serve his remaining sentence. Apparently, Sanjay will be allowed a few amenities in prison including home-cooked food, mattress, pillows and medicines for a month.

Also, the Arthur road jail, a few days ago, received an anonymous hand-written letter in Hindi that said Dutt would be harmed if he were to be lodged in the same prison.

The actor took 20 minutes to reach the courtroom from his car amidst a frantic crowd

Sanjay Dutt’s long and painful saga has only begun. The actor, on his way to surrender before the TADA court, was mobbed right outside the court gates. The onlookers included cameramen, media and fans, as a tight ring of policemen escorted him to the courtroom, and the Munnabhai actor took almost 20 minutes to reach there.

The 53-year-old, convicted in the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts case, left his Bandra home in the afternoon to a similar sight as hordes of fans gathered outside his building. While some chanted slogans in favour of the actor, others demanded a harsher sentence, and Sanjay among all this chaos, left along with wife Manyata Dutt, and first visited the Siddhivinayak temple to seek blessings.

A lot of big names from the film fraternity were there to show their support and solidarity towards Sanju, who has been convicted under the Arms Act. There were early morning prayers and celebrity visitors at his residence right since morning.

Dressed in a white kurta, with cropped hair and a tilak on his forehead, he waved at the media and fans before walking hand-in-hand with wife Manyata towards his car.

The actor will be taken first to the Arthur Road jail where paperwork and all other formalities will be completed after which he will mostly be taken to the Yerawada jail in Pune to serve his remaining three-and-half year sentence.
